A Stunning William Morris DIY Project

30th December 2018

We love scrolling our Instagram and finding beautiful things you have made from our William Morris fabric. We’ve compiled some stunning photos of projects that have been sent to us and would love to share them with you! If you email us your photos to [email protected] we will send you a 20% discount code for your next order.

Donna sent in these stunning photos from her home in Ballyholme, Bangor. A 1905 Edwardian Villa, we can’t get over how beautiful her home is! She recently crafted an ottoman using our William Morris Brother Rabbit Red fabric. It looks so stunning against the deeper tones she has in her home and the fire really makes it all look so cosy!

Donna captioned the photos, “A visual demo of the ottoman that I made. Very easy to do – the legs were from an old footstool that I found in a second hand shop. The fabric I bought from @laurasbeau, wadding, foam and trim from @dunelmuk. Wood was from @bandq_ukand cut to size in store. The 2″ X 4″ wood I cut to size at home.”

What a wonderful project, make sure to look through Donna’s Instagram, @ivylodgeni – she has the most beautiful photos of her home and the DIY projects she does!

🌿 William Morris Day 20 🌿 William Morris fact of the day; did you know he founded the Kelmscott Press? 🖋️ He wrote of the venture – “Here is a new craft to conquer and to perfect.” Printing began at the press in Spring 1891 🪴 He designed multiple fonts including “Golden” Roman typeface and “Troy” Gothic type along with “Chaucer” and he worked to create beautiful books in regards to their designs which took into account their type, image and decorative elements – you can see beautiful examples of what he achieved today if you do a quick search on the Kelmscott Press- it’s well worth a Google! 🌷

🍓 William Morris Month Day 14 🍓 Strawberry Thief was inspired by William Morris’s watching the thrushes under the strawberry nets at the stunning @kelmscottmanor 🌿 May Morris conjured up this scene when speaking of the design, “You can imagine my Father going out in the early morning and watching the rascally thrushes at work on the fruit beds and telling the fanned who growls ‘I’d like to wring their necks!’ that no bird in the garden must be touched. There were certainly more birds than strawberries in spite of attempts at protection. And the walls of the little dining-room are hung with this note of the June garden and the little lords of it.” 🍓 What a lovely insight into the Morris family life! 🥰

✨ William Morris Month Day 11 ✨ A spotlight on Willow Bough today! 🌿 This beautiful botanical design was first designed in 1887, isn’t it so timeless! It actually was the design his daughter May Morris used to decorate her bedroom before it was adapted for wallpaper in 1895 when it was block printed in Merton Abbey 🇬🇧
